RFQ A purchasing document that is used as a request to bidders to
submit their terms, such as price, discount, delivery time, and payment terms
for delivering a (quantity of a) product. You can send the RFQ to several bidders. A bidder can submit
an RFQ response for the specified items. You can record the responses, negotiate, and compare the
prices and discounts that are offered by different bidders. An accepted response can be copied to a contract, an order,
or a price book. Status The status of the RFQ response line. Line A response to a request for quotation line, which includes a
bidder's bid for the RFQ line. A bid offers goods or services for a certain price and terms of
sale and can be considered as an offer to sell. Alternative You must manually specify alternatives in
the Request for Quotation Lines (tdpur1502m000) session. Example The sequence numbers defined in the current
field, represent the RFQ lines in the most suitable alternative sequence. So,
sequence number one represents the first preferable item that can be an
alternative for the originally preferred item, sequence number two represents
the second item that can be an alternative, and so on. Bidder The business partner from whom you order goods or services;
